A new review suggests that psychedelic treatments such as psilocybin may help people with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), while cannabis shows little evidence of long-term benefit. The review, published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research and led by Dr Michael Van Ameringen of McMaster University, examined alternative treatments for OCD, a condition for which 40–60% of patients gain limited relief from standard therapies like SSRIs and exposure therapy. After analysing published studies, conference data and preliminary findings, the researchers found stronger evidence supporting psychedelics, particularly psilocybin, than cannabinoids such as THC and CBD. Van Ameringen said cannabis appears to reduce…

Scientists have found genetic changes in polar bears that could help them adapt to a warming climate, marking what is believed to be the first clear link between rising temperatures and DNA changes in a wild mammal. Researchers from the University of East Anglia compared polar bears from northern and south-east Greenland and discovered that bears living in the warmer southern region show different genetic activity. In particular, so-called “jumping genes” – mobile pieces of DNA that can influence how other genes function – were far more active in bears exposed to higher and more variable temperatures. The study found…

Manfred Weber, president of the European People’s party in the European parliament, said the European Commission is preparing to soften the rule so it no longer amounts to a complete ban on combustion engines. Instead of requiring all new cars to produce zero CO₂ emissions from 2035, carmakers would be required to meet a 90% reduction target across their fleets, allowing some hybrid vehicles to…
